Good point WBT, yeah 200hp out of an 8 cylinder, that still drank gas like an 8 cylinder, that was another bad point, and during the 80's when companies were trying to bring out gass sippers to compete ( Dodge Omni, Ford Festiva/mustang 4cylinder, etc) Alot of companies only had a few cars in that catagory, but continued bringing out 2 ton land yatchs with a big hulking V8 instead of trying to adjust to the market, they tried to focus on keeping with trtadition. They were thinking 1960's, but the gas prices and technology were speakign 1980's, and everyone was a little slow to adapt.
